Chapter 78
Zachary knew that Jonathan was in a relationship with Rosalie. However, Zendaya exposed Jonathan’s identity to Rosalie at the worst timing.
“Then have Zendaya come to the hospital.” Jonathan ordered.
“Yes,” Carlos replied. Then, he continued. “The incident of the reporter sneaking into the hospital last time has been investigated. The news of Ms. Leighton’s admission was first posted by a nurse here on Instagram. Later, someone uploaded it to the Internet. Although all relevant contents have been deleted, it is uncertain how many people have seen them.”
“Hold the nurse legally accountable, and strengthen the guard around the hospital. I don’t want anyone to break into the ward next time,” said Jonathan coldly.
Carlos promised, “I understand. It won’t happen.”
Meanwhile, Zendaya was extremely anxious in the Xanthos residence after blurting out in front of Lillian. She wouldn’t have looked for trouble with Lillian if she had known. At that moment, Zendaya was afraid.
If Lillian had suspected something and told Rosalie, it would be bad for Zendaya.
As Zendaya thought of the previous lesson where she got her leg fractured, and it had not yet recovered, she did not know what would happen to her at that moment.
Zachary was looking at Zendaya, who had bandages on one foot and walking around the living room from time to time on crutches. He couldn’t help but ask, “Zendaya, what’s wrong? You seem restless. Did you get into trouble again?”
That day, Zendaya’s parents went out to visit their friends. Initially. Zachary was supposed to go with them, but Zendaya asked him to accompany her. As a result, he stayed at home.
Zendaya finally made up her mind and said, “Zach, help me. That day, I accidentally told someone that Jonathan was in at relationship with Rosalie.”
Zachary jumped off the couch. “What? Who did you tell?”
“Rosalie’s friend. I think it’s Lillian. I wonder if she has told Rosalie. If Rosalie told Jonathan, would Jonathan make things difficult for me?” Zendaya felt uneasy.
Zachary’s face turned pale. Right at that moment, a housekeeper suddenly came to report that the personal assistant of the Youngblood family had arrived and wanted to pick up Zendaya to meet Jonathan.
When Zachary and Zendaya heard that, they exchanged helpless glances and noticed fear in each other’s eyes.
No one dared to refuse when Jonathan asked to meet them.
Zachary and Zendaya got in the car nervously. When they arrived at the hospital, Zachary was stopped outside the ward. Carlos only took Zendaya inside.
It was a luxurious VIP ward. Even wealthy people might not be able to stay in it. Zendaya looked at Rosalie, who sat on the hospital bed and dressed in a patient gown.
Rosalie couldn’t even stay in such a VIP ward when her leg was fractured. Zendaya couldn’t believe Rosalie was able to stay
in that ward
Rosalie was ill. Zendaya didn’t know what kind of disease Rosalie was suffering from.
Zendaya secretly expected Rosalie’s illness to be more severe.
Then, Zendaya was shocked again because she saw Jonathan sitting on the couch by the bed.
He was dressed in a white sweater with beige trousers, looking relaxed and attractive. Men like Jonathan were the dreams of Strico’s socialites. However, some did not end up well after deliberately approaching Jonathan. Thus, they loved and feared him.
In the past, Zendaya would have been excited if she could be so close to Jonathan. But at that moment, she was terrified.
“Here you are,” Jonathan said indifferently.
Zendaya pretended to be pitiful and cautiously asked, “Mr. Youngblood, is there something that made you ask me to come
here?”
Rosalie was also confused. She did not know why Jonathan had asked Zendaya to be there.
Jonathan smiled and replied to Rosalie, “Rosie, you don’t know, right? On the second day of New Year, your friend, Lillian. met Ms. Xanthos. She made things difficult for your friend.”
Rosalie was confused. Soon, she figured out the reason. Lillian had been helping Rosalie when they were arguing in the mall that day. Zendaya knew that Lillian was Rosalie’s friend. If she bumped into Lillian, she would probably vent her anger on
Lillian
Chapter 78
When Zendaya heard Jonathan call Rosalie intimately, her eyes widened and almost popped out.
She exclaimed inwardly, “No way! In Strico, which woman could afford Jonathan to call her that intimately?”
However, Jonathan addressed a sanitary worker intimately.
“Rosie, do you want to know how she made things difficult for your friend that day?” Jonathan asked again.
“She… How did she make things difficult?” Rosalie felt uncomfortable at the thought that Lillian had suffered because of her.
“How about letting Ms. Xanthos give a good demonstration?” Jonathan spoke casually. Then, he got up and walked to the bedside. He then bent down and helped Rosalie put on her shoes.
He acted gently and carefully, even bending his knees to cradle her feet in his palms.
Zendaya only felt that she had been triggered again. It was already ridiculous enough for Jonathan to address Rosalie intimately. And now, he was helping Rosalie put on her shoes.
Zendaya thought, “What kind of charm does Rosalie have that makes Jonathan protect her like that?”
The more shocking part was that Jonathan asked Zendaya to demonstrate again. She had no idea how to do it.
While Zendaya was lost in thought, Rosalie’s shoes had been put on. Jonathan sat on the couch with Rosalie in his arms and said to Zendaya, “You can start.”
Zendaya was confused when she heard that. Carlos, who had followed Zendaya into the ward, handed her a tissue and said with a gentle expression, “Ms. Xanthos, please clean Ms. Leighton’s shoes, just like Lillian did that day.
Zendaya’s expression changed. “What did you say? Do you want me to clean her shoes?”
“This is what Mr. Youngblood wants,” Carlos said calmly.
Zendaya gritted her teeth and stared at Rosalie with hatred. She couldn’t bring herself to do it if someone asked her to clean the shoes of a person she had always looked down upon.
She didn’t know how Rosalie had seduced Jonathan.
“Mr. Youngblood, this woman is just a sanitary worker. She’s the best at seducing men. She used to employ many tricks when she was with my brother. Otherwise, how could my brother fall in love with a woman from an ordinary family? Mr. Youngblood, don’t be fooled by her!”
